Postmodern Jukebox has managed to rework yet another thought-to-be-untouchable track into a nostalgic tune with the help of Morgan James, a powerhouse soul-vocalist from New York.

The 1970s remake shows a significant contrast from the original version produced with pop-heavy guitar riffs and roaring instruments. Rather than attempting to match Adam Levine‘s other-worldly falsetto, Morgan cools it down into a lounge-approved set with her spellbinding Motown vocals.

Postmodern Jukebox — founded by jazz pianist Scott Bradlee — has also re-imaged Katy Perry‘s “Birthday,” Iggy Azalea‘s “Fancy,” and theme songs from cartoon classics including Sailor Moon and Transformers. The New York-based cover group is slated to kick off their Eviction tour this October.
